Is there any way of using my Nokia 6310i as a remote control for a Hitachi TV. I know it's a lame thing to do with a phone, but I have a childish mind and it really would freak out the wife !!!

I don't think you can. Only programs I've seen to do something like this is Symbian based :(

but it's really not that fun... the infrared transceivers on phones aren't very powerful, you have to be quite close to the TV for it to work...

You have to wait until june.
It will be possible when mados for DCT4 will come up.

Nope, can't be done. The IR generator and sequencing is incompatible. Trying to create TV-Remote IR from your phone would be about the same as trying to use a CB radio on a cellphone network.
